Does phosphorus limitation promote species-rich plant communities? (2011, positive): “:P ratios, in fact, reflects a gradient from severe N-limitation towards N-P co-limitation (Güsewell 2004; Koerselman and Meuleman 1996; Olde Venterink et al. 2003; Cech et al. 2008), and hence would be consistent with the resource-balance hypothesis.”
Importance of sediment deposition and denitrification for nutrient retention in floodplain wetlands (2006, background): “Floodplain plant communities are often highly productive, and in Europe they are often growth limited by nitrogen (Olde Venterink et al. 2001; 2003b).”
Nutrient resorption of wetland graminoids is related to the type of nutrient limitation (2005, background): “E-mail: sabine.guesewell@env.ethz.ch 345 Nutrient resorption in graminoids © 2005 British Ecological Society, Functional Ecology, 19, 344–354 Either N or P (and sometimes K) can be limiting for plant growth in terrestrial ecosystems (Aerts & Chapin 2000; Olde Venterink et al. 2003).”
N : P ratios in terrestrial plants: variation and functional significance. (2004, background): “Finally, Olde Venterink et al. (2003) set N : K (potassium) < 2.1 and K : P > 3.4 as conditions to exclude K limitation.”
Nutrient limitation and botanical diversity in wetlands: can fertilisation raise species richness? (2005, background): “This would contrast with the hypothesis that interspecific competition should be less intense / and thus, species coexistence facilitated / when growth is limited by a resource that is hardly mobile in soil, such as P (Huston and De Angelis 1994, Olde Venterink et al. 2003).”
The C:N:P stoichiometry of organisms and ecosystems in a changing world: A review and perspectives (2012, background): “…(Ngai and Jefferies, 2004; Tibbets and Molles, 2005; Kagata and Ohgushi, 2006), ecosystemspecific composition and diversity (Roem and Berendse, 2000; Venterink et al., 2003; Güsewell et al., 2005), and with the ability of organisms to adapt to environmental stresses (Woods et al., 2003).”
